The Holocaust

By David M. Haugen

The broadest possible understanding of history comes from exploring multiple perspectives: from different time periods, different cultures, different ideologies. This volume explores the major factors that contributed to the Holocaust, the mass genocide to exterminate Jews and other groups deemed undesirable by the Nazis in Germany. Readers are given a compelling multinational perspective. After a thorough examination, readers will hear from those who lived through it. Narratives include a German Jewish man who describes Kristallnacht, a Polish woman who explains what life was like as a teenager in a forced labor camp, and an American soldier who explains what it was like to see the freshly liberated concentration camp prisoners.
